Magic The Gathering: The Role Playing Game

[Claudius Gaius]

For those who might be interested, you can download a Magic The Gathering RPG down towards the bottom of THIS page. Its a 47-page color-art pdf, uses the Magic cards as character attributes, allows any kind of character, and was apparently professionally designed as a submission for WOTC (evidently they didn't take it). It looks like fun to me, but I'd be interested in what anyone else thinks.

Probably because 4E is looking like a de-facto MtG RPG.

And Wizards isn't interested in mixing their MTG property with their D&D/RPG properties.

Also, beware the possibility they'll become aware of that thing and have a fit about it.

Yeah, like the Dusk campaign setting or w/e it was named. Was based a lot around MtG and it didn't take long before it was asked to be removed.

Soo.... get it before it's gone.

Done!

counters your assault lawyer with my regenerating blind-peer-network. Can't catch me now

Interesting, but poorly laid out. I find it hard to skim and from looking at the dense text I have no desire to actually read it.

Someone interested in posting the cliff notes?

Takedown in 5... 4... 3...

Got it! Thanks for the heads up!

My lad, this is a strawman argument.

It doesn't seem to actually have a "setting": it looks like its a system for using a collection of actual magic cards as a character. Something to do with the cards you don't actually want to use in your deck.
